Dr. Sidhwa wrote the widely circulated article for the New York Times on Palestinian children dying from gunshot wounds in Gaza. He traveled there with the Palestinian American Medical Association (PAMA), a medical aid organization.

Israel has now barred PAMA and four other American medical aid organizations from entering Gaza. 👇/1
“The @WHO reports today that Israel has banned five American aid agencies from working in Gaza. Israel gave no reason, but are all organizations with Arab leaderships.”

— Dr. @FerozeSidhwa

Here’s Drop Site’s story on this;: 👇
@WHO @FerozeSidhwa Dr. Sidhwa is calling on @POTUS and @VP to publicly announce that until the ban on American aid agencies is reversed, Israel will not receive American military aid.

Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin sent a letter to Israeli Minister of Strategic Affairs Ron Dermer and Minister of Defense Yoav Gallant, stressing Israel’s obligations under National Security Memorandum-20 (US policy) and March 2024 assurances.

🟢NEW from Drop Site:

DropSite shares a voice note received late last night from Jabalia, North Gaza, where Israel’s large-scale military offensive has already killed more than 120 Palestinians. Hospitals have been ordered shut, and the last functioning bakery destroyed. 🧵⬇️ Image
“We are currently displaced south of Jabaliya. We were displaced 4 days ago [on Monday] due to artillery shelling. What forced us to leave was that a house next to us was targeted by an Israeli airstrike, killing everyone in it.”
“Then there was random artillery shelling, which forced us to take shelter in the basement. We could hear the sound of people and their screams, but none of us could go out to help.”

Drop Site News is speaking to a team of doctors and medical professionals from northern Gaza on the latest developments.

The Israeli Defense Forces have surrounded Kamal Adwan Hospital and issued an ultimatum to hospital director Dr. Hussam Abu Safiyeh: evacuate the hospital within 24 hours or face being treated as a military target. This threat is placing immense pressure on an already strained healthcare facility.
Evacuation poses life-threatening risks, particularly for vulnerable patients, including fragile infants in incubators. Dr. Husam emphasized: “moving or transporting these patients puts their life in serious danger.” Many of these babies require specialized ambulances and medical personnel for safe transport.
